I have a gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 Motherboard with an Intel Pentium D Dual Core
3.4 945 Chip, 2 Gigs of PC5300 DDR2 Ram. Since I live in a remote section
of
Ireland we have discovered Eircom (The telephone co.) will never upgrade
our
exchange to support Broadband since there are only 439 houses/telephone
lines
on the exchange... So I opted for ISDN... I have purchased 4 different
ISDN
Modems, two PCI Cards and two USB modems, The cards caused my computer to
blue screen, so after trying two different cards I purchased a D-Link USB
ISDN TA (modem), it worked for a wee while, then crashed my computer and
blue
screened or just rebooted the computer. So I contacted D-Link tech
support,
after two hours of discussions and trying different drivers, the tech
explained there was a compatibility issue with ISDN Modems and Service
Pack
2. He stated if I had SP 1 or Win 2K the modem would work properly. So I
went
out and purchased a TRUST Mini USB ISDN Modem Model md-2100p (13018). I
figured trust was a pretty reliable product and was dead easy. I installed
said modem, connected to Internet and wow... I could download my email
with
OUTLOOK Express... But when I went to open my browser... Death warmed
over...
All I get on every website is the WINDOWS Can Not display this page...
Everyone has seen it at some time. But with me it's constant... After
checking the trust manual it states probable cause is wrong protocol. But
the
protocol is set by the Dial up and can't be changed... I hope there is a
patch to correct this incompatibility issue or if some knows how I can get
the ISDN USB Modem to work properly I would be eternally grateful... The
frustration is driving me around the bend... I am paying a hefty price for
ISDN and can't use it... I'm 72 years old and live on a very limited
income
(less then 1000 Euro a month) Needless to say I can't afford to keep
purchasing different modems. I have asked Trust support for help but they
will not reply to my inquiries... So I am hoping someone here might be
able
to help me.... I remain gratefully yours
